**Job Description**
The C-Sink Project, funded by the EU EIC Pathfinder Challenges 2024, is dedicated to decarbonizing construction materials by developing an innovative binder system that incorporates CO₂-sequestered magnesium silicate minerals as supplementary cementitious materials. This approach aims to reduce embodied carbon and enable concrete to function as a net carbon sink. This postdoctoral position specifically focuses on advancing multi-scale durability modeling of self-compacting concrete (SCC) that integrates these mineralized SCMs. The researcher will be based at TU Delft and collaborate with partners at KIT (Germany) and CSIC (Spain).
**Skills & Abilities**
• Strong knowledge of concrete technology and durability
• Demonstrated experience in experimental durability research of construction materials
• Solid background in numerical simulation and multi-scale modeling
• Strong publication record in relevant journals
• Excellent written and spoken English skills
• Independent researcher, but also an effective team player eager to collaborate with academic and industry partners
**Qualifications**
Required Degree(s) in:
• Civil Engineering
• Materials Science & Engineering
• Chemical Engineering
• Closely related field
